Rebecca Dornin, web designer and programmer for Harvard Business School's 
Information Architecture group, will give an overview of making web database 
applications with Dreamweaver and Coldfusion.

Topics included will be:

1) How to connect to a database easily
2) How to insert, update, and delete items from a database easily
3) How to create logins easily
4) How to show query results on a web page
5) How to do all of these easily using cfm, php, or jsp

Ultimately, she will show how DMX makes it really easy and significantly faster 
to create web database applications.

She is totally enthusiastic about Dreamweaver as a product, because, in 
countless ways, it has helped her produce web sites in a quarter of the time it 
once took. The database application tools are one key component of this tool 
that are well worth a look.
